Nazar Hotel

"Located in a residential area of ​​a small town, we booked the place specifically for the swimming pool; the interior was chill. The owner was very welcoming, but seemed a bit too rule-abiding, like a combination of a warm-hearted Turk and a disciplined East Asian."

Stonehouse

Villa Dreams

"Charming little hotel with great view, and a lovely pool surrounded by shaded tables and chaises lounges."

Ayasoluk Hotel & Restaurant

"This is a lovely guesthouse with a distinctly Turkish feel. The breakfast is fantastic, and the restaurant's lunch and dinner options are also amazing! It's a 10-minute drive from Ephesus, and I highly recommend staying overnight in this town."

Livia Garden Hotel

"Overall, we were very satisfied with the experience and would recommend it to everyone. It's only 3 kilometers from the ancient city of Ephesus, and you can park your car at the main entrance. Cleanliness: The room smelled wonderful as soon as we entered, and everything was very clean. Facilities: The basic facilities were complete, consistent with the promotional photos. Our family of three chose a triple room, which included two single beds and an extra bed—very comfortable. Environment: The dark wood decor combined with the white walls was beautiful. The blooming flowers at the entrance were gorgeous. There's a small courtyard, a swimming pool, and a restaurant for breakfast. Service: The staff warmly welcomed us upon check-in, and the breakfast was very plentiful. We could choose how the eggs were cooked. And there were so many adorable cats and dogs! They looked at us with such pious eyes while we ate breakfast, haha!"

Ephesus Hitit Hotel Restaurant

"PRELIMINARY NOTE: I didn't choose this hotel myself; it was a stop on a package tour of western Turkey from Istanbul down to Antalya. I don't know the actual hotel rate for my stay, so I can't really comment on the value for money. LOCATION: It's located on the outskirts of the small town of Selcuk. It's right next to a busy highway and near a gas station. It took me about 20 minutes to walk to the center of Selcuk at a leisurely pace. There's hardly anything around the hotel. So, if you want to go shopping or have some variety, you should head into town. There you'll also find the Selcuk Fortress on a hill. FACILITIES/SERVICE: The reception was friendly and uncomplicated, and the lobby and public areas made a good impression. I didn't use the outdoor pool or spa facilities, so I can't comment on them. Our tour group was also only there for one night, like the vast majority of guests. The ancient site of Ephesus is nearby, and Selçuk itself isn't a touristy place, so most people come "only" for Ephesus, and the next day the many tour buses move on. Wi-Fi is free, fast, and reliable. There's a bar in the lobby as well as a lounge area. There are two small elevators. The breakfast and dinner selection is limited, offers a basic variety, and is acceptable by Turkish standards. The staff is attentive and friendly. ROOMS: My double room with two single beds for single occupancy was on the first floor – unfortunately facing the street. You can hear the cars, especially when it rains – and it did rain. The windows are single-glazed, and the window and door frames are very thin, like sheet metal. There's no ceiling light, only wall lamps, which makes the room rather dim. The TV is flat-screen but small. There's no safe, only a very old key-operated model languishing uselessly in the dilapidated wardrobe. There's no luggage rack or anything like that. Instead, there are quite a few scratches on the wall. There's a small balcony, a small refrigerator, and two complimentary 0.5-liter bottles of water. It's also a plus that there's no carpet; I don't like rooms with carpets. I find them unhygienic. I personally found the mattress quite hard, but they definitely didn't skimp on the fabric softener for the towels. The bed linens are okay. The rooms are a bit noisy. CONCLUSION: Well, if I had planned to visit Selçuk and then Ephesus on my own, I would have chosen a hotel in the center. This one, as mentioned, was a pre-planned stop. It's okay for one night. The areas I saw and used were in good condition, the staff was friendly, and the food was decent. If you decide to eat there, I recommend asking for a room at the back, away from the main road and the buses that stop right outside."

Richmond Ephesus Resort - All Inclusive

"The smell of sewage in the rooms is disturbingly strong. Bed bugs are rampant Mosquitoes are waiting for you You are not a traveler, you are just food for the blood-sucking insects of the Richmond Hotel. Forget lunch and don't eat last night's food. Wait for dinner to be cooked in front of you. Lunch is equal to last night's dinner."

Akanthus Hotel Ephesus

"Tucked away in a little uphill culdesac in Selcuk, I found this jewel hotel Akanthus. Close to St John’s ruins, the palace and the informative Ephesus museum . Easy access to Ephesus (home of Mother Mary) with bus or taxi.  Breakfast and tea are all included in this hotel, which also has a good enough pool overlooking a valley.  The sunset view from the poolside is awe inspiring!!  Hotel was built 2018, and our newly renovated room is a classic, with solid fixtures especially the shower!!  Tq to Soner and the lovely maids too 🙏🙏 Worth it!"

Livia Hotel Ephesus

"The facilities in the room are very new. Although the breakfast has few varieties, it is filling. I booked Livia Hotel online, but found the address was closed after following the map navigation. I called the owner and found out that he had two stores. The store shown on the map was closed. I was actually staying at Livia Garden Hotel."

Nicea Hotel

"Location is superb, it is right next to the Efes Museum. We had a car so it wasn’t a big deal for us to go to the ancient city and the Virgin Mary’s tomb but even if we hadn’t, there are plenty of choices of public transportation. You can even walk to the ruins of the ancient city. The breakfast was nice, the staff was sincere and helpful. The cafe next to the hotel has good tea. And there are a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. The castle is only a few hundreds away from the hotel."

Urkmez Hotel

"On our third stay in the Urkmez we were, as always, treated very well. Our room was very nice with everything we needed, and very centrally situated near the Byzantine aqueduct. We felt like one of the family. Breakfast was very good. We shall look forward to a return one day."
